Don’t forget, most of them are different in the original French
eg Getafix is Panoramix, Dogmatix is Idefix

True, they did get localised during translation.
The legionary’s names wouldn’t work as well outside of the UK for a start. I’ve no idea what they were in the French version.

I get that they weren't all but they usually had some element of humour in them so I guess I was looking for more of an obvious gag.
idefix = idée fixe = dogmatix = dogmatic
is brilliant

I’d never made that connection before, that’s awesome.
